very disturbing

•  Info all by Yann (talk) 05:09, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
•  Info This is taken from the top of this: File:Old temple, Orchha.jpg. I had to do dangerous acrobaties, but it seems worth the risk. See also File:Vulture nests, Orchha, Madhya Pradesh, India.jpg. Yann (talk) 22:42, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

•  Support A very cute one! Deserves to be a featured one. Dipankan001 (talk) 05:21, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
•  Comment what's the white on the background? Tomer T (talk) 09:21, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
  • Something down at the bottom of the temple probably. Yann (talk) 09:56, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
•  Support --Vassil (talk) 22:55, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
•  Oppose Excellent subject with encyclopaedic value, but that background really spoils it and makes it non-FP. Can it be retaken with better composition? --NJR_ZA (talk) 08:09, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
  • No. It can't be retaken. This is a very rare opportunity to take these birds in the nest. Not only it is the only picture of vulture nest on Commons, but one of the best you can find on the whole Internet, with both adults and juvenile visible. Yann (talk) 08:18, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

•  Support Not the "very best" quality, but well captured, and valuable for Wikipedia. - A.Savin 21:49, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
•  Support Jkadavoor (talk) 07:40, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
•  Oppose bad light (all is shady), disturbing area on the right and in the background, sharpness could be better, boring and grey colours. --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 13:22, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
•  Oppose As Carschten, except for the colors part. --Paolo Costa (talk) 16:48, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

•  Support - this shot is very difficult, I'll give the photographer some leniency with technical aspects here. --Claritas (talk) 15:39, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
•  Comment Both the white building in the background and the rock in the right can be removed by some editing work. This can yield a much better result. Gidip (talk) 08:22, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Carschten. --Jovian Eye _storm 02:26, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
